as I am not a programmer and was reverse-engineering this forum's surprisingly complex code, I messed up a lot of features that I do not normally use. Thus I sometimes need to turn off my CSS style plugin to be able to read / access things

And here is that ill-result of mine so far: https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=119036

It is far from being finished

I see.... :P

you can use User styles (using web browser plugin) and hide it with CSS code.

I already did. With a lot of other changes

We have a plan in place, and will post about it soon and then give enough time for users to read/notice about it.
I think either way we will some posts that fall through the cracks, and we'll try to sort and move them later on... but very possible that some will be missed. :/

As for V2, we are discussing plan atm, but idea is that we want to avoid a v1-v2 confusion.

:thumbup: Seems nontrivial to figure out what a good way to both organize v1 vs v2 things as they are now and also make room for future v3 (or v2.1 ...). If > v2 versions with breaking changes will come out e.g. yearly or more frequently then adding new subforums for each such version might become messy. Then there's the old forum.

BTW it looks like specific v2 wishes/requests now are posted by some people in "Wish List" but by others in "AutoHotkey v2 Development" (which earlier seemed more like a place for Lexikos to post plans and for more general discussions).

Actually, it is pretty standard to have the logo at the top of the forums. We simply replaced the phpbb logo with AHK's.
Example: https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewforum.php?f=551

If you really don't like it, you can use User styles (using web browser plugin) and hide it with CSS code.

What about the elephant in the room? This huge [i][b]AHK [/b][/i]logo at the very top? surely it could me made smaller or moved to some line below where it is now

Okay, I've unpinned the intellectual property topic, makes sense since even the last reply was almost a full year ago. As for V2, we are discussing plan atm, but idea is that we want to avoid a v1-v2 confusion.

Am I alone in thinking that a topic about a webinar from 2019 about protecting one's intellectual property is not important enough to warrant being a [i]global sticky[/i]?

Agree!

Worth asking also if the other current global sticky items need that status? Or is it enough to cover them in the forum FAQ and/or stickied only in "Forum Issues" or "General" perhaps.

The announcement section could also have a toggle button to hide/show it, like some subforum top sections already have (BTW that button is not visible with all board styles under board preferences)

Also in the screenshot: the description for the v2 Help subforum is outdated (v2 Scripts too). Perhaps the text "Get help for the alpha version of AutoHotkey v2 here. Please state the v2 version you are working with in the title when making a new topic." could just be removed now that v2.0 is released?

[quote="Guest"]You could combine these two as they are related:

Merged.

@-moz-document domain("autohotkey.com")
{
  div.forumbg.announcement, li.row.bg1.sticky, li.row.bg2.sticky{
    display:none !important;
  }
}

Made a quick Stylish style to hide announcements (remove the first line for Chrome):
[code=css file=Untitled.css]
@-moz-document domain("autohotkey.com")
{
div.forumbg.announcement, li.row.bg1.sticky, li.row.bg2.sticky{
display:none !important;
}
}
[/code]
I've already updated to FireFox 57, so after greasemonkey gets updated, I can write a script on that to replace it as well as hide stickies. Or maybe someone else could, if they want to make an actual drop-down button for it.

Edit: nevermind, didn't notice there was a specific class for stickies. Updated the style above to hide stickies.

I totally agree. I've merged two. what else should I merge?

That's probably a valid point, although for me personally it is not important, because I always (=often) check the 'New Posts' page: https://autohotkey.com/boards/search.php?search_id=newposts That's how I found this topic, anyway.
Only if I am away for a longer time, I scroll directly through the subforums (or, what happens from time to time, 'New Posts' doesn't seem to display all new posts; not sure about the filter rules there)

+1

I think they are useful but need to be organized in a way so its less disruptive.

In my eyes there are way too many fixed topics within most sections of this forum.

Almost within on each section the complete opening view is occupied with fixed topics. Visting the forum nearly daily, it's annoying to have to sroll down to see the new things (and as a daily visitor I know the contents of the fixed pages)

Either reduce the amount on fixed topics to a limited number (let's say not more than 3) - or offer an option where an user can hide already read fixed topics ... (and display them again automatically when contents changes)
